Magazines for the troops

WARPIMP, Welcome to the site! Always nice to have another military member on the site.
Man, you sound like me! I had the same problem while enjoying the sandbox. Spent most of my precious internet time on the site instead of emailing the family. It's all cool though, my wife knows me and figured as much. I'm back in the states now (5 months since I returned) and man did I miss the outdoors!
As for your idea...I like it. I know what your goin' through and would be happy to help out. I'll have my wife gather as many of mine as she can dig up. Do ya have an FPO AE address we can send them to for distro?
Guys and Gals here at MuleyMadness, let's see what we can do for our brothers and sisters still over there. I know that the postage may be an issue but I think we can figure that one out. In fact, I think it would be easiest if we did it individually as long as Warpimp can provide a mailing address.
Take care my friend and let us know what else we can do for ya.

Any idea what postage might be?

thats a good idea my friend . my brotther is going to be stationed there in a couple of weeks . let me see if i have any old magazines laying aroundand if not , pick up some new ones for you . let me know your address over there and some will be on the way .

Once WarPimp can get us an FPO AE address (military mailing address) I will be sending some too.

Cowdell, not sure what the postage will be but I'm gonna do it anyway.

Thank you for the replys. My mailing address is

thanks

Thanks man. Expect some packages. Stay safe, kick some A**, and keep in touch.

Glad to see folks willing to help out the troops. I just finished up my training at Ft Bliss and will heading over next month. I've already turned a few of my troops on to this site and they love it. Of course, they believe the pics of me are Photoshop'd.

I stopped by the post office today and found out you can ship out a flat rate box that is 14"x 12"X 31/2" for under $9. I am able to fit 30 magazines in it. Sound like a great price to me. Maybe if a few people that only have a couple mags. you can get together and put them in the same box. Also, maybe this post could be moved to the general mule deer forum to get more exposure.

I can send some of my old hunting mags, I also have some maxim and stuff magazines, I can ship out.

ohhh! maxim :-$ lol. ill try to dig up some of my old mags and send um your way

I have a TON of hunting mags. I will get them shipped in the next week or so. Thanks for doing what you are doing :thumb

Thanks for all the support. Will look forward to the mag's and all of your stories from the upcoming hunting seasons.
Good Luck

#-o well I`ll be damned. I actually asked this question on another hunting website about two weeks ago and did not get any replies ](*,) . I asked if there was anyone who knew where I could ship my hunting mags, I have eastmans, hunting illustrated, american hunter, bugle, etc. I have three (3) big boxes of them RIGHT NOW packed up ready to go and nowhere to send them. thanks !!!!! I am telling you this- be looking for three boxes from marana arizona within the next week or so because they are being shipped tuesday morning ! pass them around and let them be read =D>

well I`ll say this- it AIN`T $9.00 for any boxes with 30 mags in them ! that I know :nono: anywho- hey RYAN ! hows things over there ? listen buddy I went to my local postal office on 08/09/2006 and shipped out 3 boxes to YOU.

13lbs 10.8 oz = $27.45
19lbs 13.0 oz = $38.35
10lbs 3.60 oz = $22.05
3 boxes total = $87.85

cost of giving hunting magazines to our troops = PRICELESS =D>

ha ha, anyway I hope you will be looking for them, you can`t really miss them- they are full-o-duct tape ! I stuffed them full of alot of hutning stuff, a couple of "F H M" mags as well, a master cabelas catalog- heck I don`t remember all of whats in there as I have been throwing mags in those boxes for 8 months now at least. pass them around buddy, share the wealth !!!!! :1 :3 :2

Your a good man, dang that's not cheap for sure.

I was wondering if those three boxes of magazines arrived over there yet ? should have been three boxes about two weeks ago I would have guessed ? just curious if they have arrived yet or not ? thanks.

#-o well it figures as soon as I open my mouth I put a stick in it, or a shoe, old tire, something- lol #-o . anywho today I got a letter in the mail from a guy name of =D> ryan miller =D> . this is the man overseas who is taking care of us all [-o< , and his marine bretheren [-o< !!!!!! well it was a thank you letter. he received all 3 boxes of my hunting/rolling stones/misc/etc magazines I shipped out last month =D> . he stated that he grabbed the eastmans journal, and the troops grabbed the rolling stones, very cool :) . I must say I felt something reading that letter. even with him being overseas in the middle of crap, he took the time to sit down and write a letter of thanks- to me- I thank him and his every day, I do :nono: NOT :nono: feel worthy of a thanking from them. I very much appreciated it though. I feel good that when my 14 year old son put in his copies of rolling stones with my hunting mags I did`nt make him take them out- :)) lol. I feel grateful that there are men and women fighting for us, reading hunting magazines. mr miller talked of feeling the "urge" because he knows it is the begining of hunting season over here and how he can`t wait to get back to oregon to go archery deer hunting. [-o< I feel good today [-o< . these are good kids we have over there "in country" handling our business, I feel good knowing this, I am proud to know that :thumb !!!!! I hope you all take this to heart as I have, this meant something to me. I plan on sending more. and :1 WHEN :1 mr miller returns home I will be looking for another address, another american soldier "in country" to send hunting magazines too. :333

Great job, glad you took the time and Mr. Milller also took the time to let you know he received them.

I agree we should be thankful and praying for our troops ever single day of our lives.

your a good man and i also agree we should be grateful for all that there doin over there

hey buddy, whats new ? listen I have another couple of boxes of current/new/last years hunting magazines all ready to go. are you still over there ? anyone else over there that might want some hunting mags/etc. let me know !!!!!
